Due to the virtual style of the meeting, MCAPS members are asked to submit questions to the Board prior to the meeting, so that they can be addressed at the AGM.  Please email questions to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

As an extra treat, Alex Cebulski and Dr. Bill Floyd of VIU's Coastal Hydrology and Climate Research Lab have dropped a brand new interface for us to make the close-to-live weather station data even more accessible to all you budding science nerds. Check it!


All the best,

Cain crew.

-Cain Crew


As the only fully Canadian-owned and operated ski resort left on Vancouver Island, we know all about bacon, maple syrup, walking uphill both ways to school in the snow, and getting your tongue stuck to metal posts on a dare. We also know about bottomless powder, and low-to-no lift lineups.

Ski the Island's best powder. Buy local. Stay local. Resistance to the Vailborg.

“Mount Cain is located in the territory of the ‘Namgis First Nation.  The mountainous area near the Davie River, or Dzudzux’an, is known as Papikalan in Kwak’wala, meaning ‘place of marmots’.”

And viva Woss Vegas!
